    Coinbuf got a reaction from Khuggins78 in 1941 wheat Penny   
    Most circulated wheat coins (like yours) from the thirties on are only worth around 3 cents each for the copper metal value.   Coins from those years need to be uncirculated to have any value over that.   The only exception is for any varieties or error coins which might be of interest to collectors of those type of coins.
    Yours is a nice looking coin not all trashed or road rashed as so many are, it would look nice in a circ wheat album.

    Yeah I thought it was underwhelming as well..I was hoping for something more exciting. Just knobs on the cabin  with magnification. I will be opening it but as you stated only to look for MS 67+ thanks again!

    This date/mm/design is not tough to find in gem grades up to MS67, tougher in MS68 so if you were lucky enough to find one of that grade caliber you would be doing well.   I am not a varieties/error collector myself as those things are interesting to study but I have no interest in searching for or owning very many.   As such if I were to open and look through that roll I would only be searching for that MS68 needle in the haystack coin.  I don't know where you found the info you posted above, but VV does list several DDR's for this coin.   To be honest the DDR's I found listed on VV are extremely underwhelming (imo) and I doubt that any carry much of a premium, although I do admit I did not attempt to look up any value info.
    Good luck if you do decide to open it and look through it.

    Thought it was interesting finding a roll of these. Maybe there are some keepers. These probably aren't worth much but I figured if there were some at MS 67 or greater it would be a decent find.
    Probably not worth grading any even if I did find some gems in here am I right? Any opinions on value or worth sorting through? Anything else welcome, thank you!

    Sometimes you have to improve your best in order for people to be much help to you. There's this fact that we have to be able to see all of the coin clearly in order to diagnose the situation and in some cases explain the diagnosis.
    We get that most people will not read the posting guidelines (why be bothered? those are for other people), but if they are then told that their photography is inadequate to a full diagnosis, they should assume that we have a reason for saying so. No one failed to be calm; someone simply told you the truth.

    No discrimination in this thread, if it is copper you can post it even if minted yesterday.   Lots of die polish on the 64.
